"Reflecting on Apple Blossom"
I thought this looked almost Japanese ....... with thanks to Patrick O'PicMonkey for a couple of one-click effects with blossom from one of my apple trees in the garden.
Apropos of nothing at all really - I was thinking about my maternal Grandad this morning and how he always called his hat his "titfer" - when I was young I just thought it was his word but then I learned it came from tit-for-tat (rhyming slang for "hat") and the phrases are often shortened to just one word ........ a few other gems are:
Yer barnet looks nice today (Barnet Fair = hair)
Just popping down the frog for a pint wiv me old china (frog & toad = road ....... china plate = mate)
He's doin' a bit of bird right now (bird lime = time (in prison))
Just thought some of you might find it interesting ............ :o))
